Let's make this birthday one to remember.

49 years old (Born on April 25, 1976)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Kim Jong-kook! From your Turbo days, where you danced into our hearts with boundless energy and catchy tunes, to becoming everyone's favorite "Commander" on Running Man—your strength (and hilarious fear of needles) never fails to entertain us. Who else could make ripping name tags look like an Olympic sport?

Whether you're flexing muscles or hitting those high notes effortlessly, you've proven age is just a number—and protein shakes are clearly magical potions. Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter, success in variety shows galore, and fewer surprise needle encounters!

Stay strong forever!
